What is a Modjeska? It's not a word you'll find in Webster's dictionary; it's the name of a Polish actress. Madame Helena Modjeska, famed queen of the European stage, appeared at the McCauley Theater in Louisville KY. Her theatrical performance was enthralling to a patron attending this debut, Mr. Anton Busath, owner of Busath Candies, who was honored by an introduction to the beautiful actress. He asked and was granted permission to name his confection after her. Thus the "Caramel Biscuit" became known as the "Modjeska!" This tradition is carried on today by Kentucky's own Bauer's Candy.

A handmade marshmallow is at the center of each Modjeska, with a generous case of sweet caramel enrobing the delicious core. Packed in a beautiful gift box, these Modjeskas are perfect as anniversary gifts, birthdays, or just to tell someone how sweet they are to you. Available either plain or chocolate-coated. Varieties sold separately.

A Unique Treat

This candy is a throwback to my youth and brings back fond memories of trips to the city (Louisville, KY) and a stop at Sears to get these treats. Always fresh and tasty.

Stale Modjeskas

They were dry and seemed old

A delicious treat

These Modjeskas are a pleasant treat. The caramel covered marshmallows are wonderful. I highly recommend them to everyone. The texture of the marshmallows are perfect, and the caramel is not too thick nor too sweet. Simply delicious.

childhood treat

Used to get these on trips to Louisville KY as a child. They bring back great memories but all who try them like them too. So glad they are still available!

Meh!

I had high hopes for these, as I love carmel.
Found the carmel to be rather blah- -not very sweet and bland too-where's the carmel flavo? And the center to be uninspiring. Do eat them at room temperature, they are even less inspiring when cold.
